Some questions:
How does everyone react to Chloe knowing Diana?
I don't think there's really an opportunity for people to know Chloe's relationship/history with Diana. Steve and Lana are definitely aware because they have files on exactly how Chloe met Diana, but when Diana comes into the present day storyline, there isn't really a story beat of
others learning about Chloe/Diana so much as the opportunity for them to be in the same presence as her / be introduced to her - if that makes sense.
There's definitely scenes where they're in the same room together. I'm not entirely sure if they get any one-on-one moments. There's nothing coming to my mind about specific interactions, but yeah - I do know they're in certain scenes together, if that's anything, haha
Essentially, Jason gave Chloe this ultimatum to meet him at 8 o'clock, and we don't really know what her answer to that was because all hell kind of broke loose. So it's up in the air. We will find out, though. Maybe not in the next episode, but soon!
That was fun to write. I loved inserting that scene from 319 into 418. I couldn't believe it still fit, word for word. I felt like someone who plans super far ahead, when I was like 80% sure it wasn't going to work the way I wanted it to and would have to change dialogue and make it a
new appearance, haha. As for bringing Perry back, he'll pop up in the final season for sure!
Karl is back in the next episode, and in quite a few of these final episodes, actually. Lucius was left in quite a scary place at episode's end, so he may need some rescuing - and it just might come from The Ranger. He has one of my favourite lines of 419!
Depending on how things play out after all those cliffhangers, I'd just say that Bruce is going to be in a lot of shock and a lot of denial. Also, Talia is going to be threading back into his story, and that will lead to a pretty huge, jaw-dropping moment in this season's finale! So there's a lot coming up for Bruce.
419 is definitely a
huge Chloe and Oliver episode. They're trapped in a crater. Oliver lost his arm, he's bleeding out, he's essentially dying, and so there's going to be a focus on them and that relationship. If you look at Dinah and Oliver getting married as a
happily ever after and a form of closure in and of itself, then this episode is a form of closure for Chloe and Oliver and
their dynamic. We haven't really gotten Oliver's perspective on how his whole memory thing works, or what his feelings are towards Chloe without that knowledge of the past, and so this is the episode where he gets to open up and so there's a lot of great
Chlollie and
Dinahollie moments in this episode.
As for Dinah and Oliver, specifically, they're
definitely married now. They got to say their "I do's" albeit offscreen. So heading into the next episode, while you have Oliver opening up to Chloe and sharing his
potential last words with her, Dinah is going to be teaming up with Mia to try and break them out and get them to safety.
Chloe and Lana are
great. I think episode 17 really cleared up any grievances from 416. There was a line from Lana about waiting for the others to come around just like she did, so that was pretty much confirmation that they're a-okay, now. You'll see Chloe lean on Lana quite a bit in these final episodes.
It'll be addressed in the next episode. What I love about the character of Zinda Blake is that she comes from the past, and this is my way of incorporating that aspect of her story from the comics. So what happened in the last episode was very much the beginning of a storyline for her that carries through to the rest of the season!
Again, I could totally be blanking on certain scenes, but I'm not sure if there's any one-on-one's for them. Mia is very much tangled up in Dinah and Oliver's storyline. She's also joining the fight, so she's in a lot of action sequences, and paired up with the heroes. And now that I'm thinking of it, I'm like 95% sure she has an interaction with Chloe in 4x20. So there's
that to look forward to, haha. I am all over the place in trying to remember scenes I s2g
